Real boxing and kickboxing in Hackney Wick taught clearly, safely without ego so you always know what you’re doing
WHY THE MAW STUDIOS EXISTS
We built The MAW Studios so real people in Hackney Wick can train with purpose, not pressure. Every class blends sharp coaching, mental focus and community — whether you’re here for Boxing, Kickboxing, Kids & Family or Wellness.
Real boxing, done safely

Pricing that respects your life
One small step. Then the next one.
You don’t have to become “a boxer” overnight. Start with one small decision that feels doable, then build a rhythm that fits work, family, energy and nerves.
Adult Boxing & Kickboxing classes • First-time clients only for trials
Simple, flexible pricing
What your membership is really paying for:
Start with a Free Trial or the 2-Week Unlimited Trial, then choose the rhythm that fits your life and your budget.
Free Trial Class
One coached Boxing or Kickboxing Essentials class on us. Feel the room, meet the coach, and see how our pace and structure land in your body.
2-Week Unlimited Trial
Two full weeks of Boxing and Kickboxing Essentials. Enough sessions to feel real progress, not just survive a single workout.
Train 2× Per Week Membership
Two coached sessions a week that fit around work and family. Predictable structure and clear cues so you see steady progress without training taking over your life.
Unlimited Training Membership
Come as often as you like. Use the studio as your third space, refine your technique, and anchor your week around structured training.
Drop-ins & Class Packs
Not ready for a membership yet? Use a single drop-in or a class pack to build a rhythm that fits around work, family and energy.
Single Class Drop-In
One time drop-in class at The MAW Studios. Perfect if you want to experience a class without committing to a package.
5 Class Pack
Five classes at The MAW Studios, valid for 3 months from purchase. Ideal if you attend occasionally and want savings on individual sessions.
10 Class Pack
Ten classes at The MAW Studios, valid for 6 months from purchase. Best for regular attendees seeking better value per class.
Free and 2-week trials apply to adult Boxing/Kickboxing only. Open-style sessions are not trial-eligible. Personal Training packages are available separately for 1:1 or 2:1 coaching.
What your money is actually buying
You’re not paying to be shouted at in a dark room. You’re paying for a method that respects your body, your nervous system and the rest of your life.
Safe progression
Classes are built so you can scale up or down on every drill. We care more about your long-term joints, heart and nervous system than about you “smashing” one session.
Clear coaching
Calm cues, clear demos, no chaos. If you overthink, get overwhelmed, or need time to process instructions, we make sure you’re not lost on the edge.
Long-term results
Predictable structure plus real boxing and kickboxing technique means lasting changes in skill, confidence and fitness – not just soreness and regret the next day.
A pace that respects your life
We expect work deadlines, kids, hormones, mental health cycles and low-energy days. Slow is welcome, pausing is normal, and coming back is always celebrated.
Questions you might be asking
Especially if you’re anxious, over 40, or haven’t moved like this in a while.
What should I choose if I’m nervous or unfit?
If the idea of a full membership feels too big, start with the 2-Week Trial. It’s a small one-off decision that gives you time to settle in and see how your body responds. If even that feels like a lot, book the Free Trial and just focus on getting in the room once.
Can I mix Boxing and Kickboxing?
Yes. Essentials memberships and packs let you move between Boxing and Kickboxing classes, depending on your energy, schedule and what you enjoy most.
What if I’m over 40, ND or coming back from injury?
You’re who we built this for. We ask about injuries, history and access needs, keep numbers small, and offer clear options in every drill. You choose the pace; we support it.
Can I pause or switch my membership?
Yes. If life changes – travel, injury, new baby – talk to us. We’ll help you pause or move between 2× Per Week and Unlimited so you’re not paying for something you can’t use.
Do class packs expire?
Packs have a clear expiry window (for example 3 months for a 5-Pack). Exact details show when you buy a pack; if you’re unsure, ask us in the studio or on WhatsApp.
Are Kids & Family included in adult memberships?
Kids & Family usually runs on its own pricing so we can look after both parents and young people properly. We’ll explain how this works when you start and help you choose the right option for your household.
Still not sure what to choose?
If you’re juggling work, kids, headspace or health stuff, message us. We’ll suggest one small, sensible starting point and tell you exactly what your first class will feel like.
Arrive 10 minutes early for your first class so we can help with wraps, gloves and a quick orientation.
